The Faerie Realm differs from the Magic Realm by its inherent nature of change. While the Magic Realm is about stability and growth, the Magic Realm is about (personal and universal) development, progression, and alteration. Instead of objectiveness, it is about subjective perception. Although it has its rules and taboos, it is not about morality, but experience.

The Third and Fourth Edition supplement Faeries Revised Edition described the Faerie Realm as Arcadia, a place where associations were at the heart of "geography" and that was divided between Summer and Winter, Light and Dark. The faeries and stories of Faerie followed strange but specific rules, such as "What is mine is mine, what is yours is mine too".

Unlike the Fifth Edition's realm, Fourth Edition's Arcadia was a strange and exotic place, a place where stories happened but not one that revolved around stories and only exists to the extent they do.
